It is not possible to secure a load properly unless the roof rack system has been properly installed ⇒
.
Maximum permissible roof load
The maximum permissible roof load is 200lbs. (90 kg).
The maximum permissible roof load is the combined weight of the roof rack and the items being car‐
ried on the roof ⇒ .
Be sure you know the weight of the roof rack and the items you want to transport on the roof. Weigh
them if necessary. Never carry a total of more than the maximum permissible roof load.
When using a roof rack with a lower load limit, do not load the rack to the maximum weight mentioned
above. In this case, you may only load the roof rack to the weight limit specified in the system's instal‐
lation instructions.
Distributing the load
Distribute the load evenly and secure it properly ⇒ .
Checking the mountings
After the base carrier and roof rack have been installed, check all bolts and fasteners after driving a
short time and at regular intervals thereafter.
WARNING
If the maximum permissible roof load is exceeded, accidents and substantial vehicle damage
may occur.
Never exceed the specified roof load, the maximum Gross Axle Weight Rating, or the Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating.
Do not exceed the loading capacity of the roof rack, even if the permissible roof load is not
fully utilized.
Always make sure that loads are evenly distributed and that heavier items are, as far as possi‐
ble, toward the front.
